Bee Crafty Inspiration

Morning everyone..

Once again Wednesday and my turn to share some inspiration for 

Ive once again made a tag..
Im sorry, but Im loving making tags at the moment. Im curently taking the Tim Holtz online classes and Im loving just playing with inks, stencils, pastes.. ahh anything that is messy lol.. and that then in turn spills in to my crafty projects..

This week Ive used the following stamps from the Bee Crafty STORE:

Here is what Ive made this week:






My crafty new years resulution is/was to learn how to use all the stash I have without buying too much more.. I really want to learn how to use my stamps in many more ways then just the ovious and that is what Ive done on this tag.

For this one, I use my sentiment stamp as a background stamp. I know, I know, its not like Ive invented something new, but its a new for me. I tend to just stick with the same guidelines for each project unless Im scrapbooking..

The rest of the tag is simply smothered in distress inks and layered with a mask using the clear paste through it.. "Heartfelt Abi" is also coloured with distress inks before spraying her with a homemade glimmer mist. It made her colouring smudge a bit, but i really love tha effect.

To put the tag together,  added the lace (which is coloured with distress ink) layered the flowers and added Abi. Finished with a home made cameo and ribbons at the top.. Voila..

And that is all from me for today. 
Thanks for popping by and for any comments left behind.
